Embodiments of the invention provide a system for temperature control of the human body. The system includes an indwelling catheter with a tip-mounted heat transfer element. The catheter is fluidically coupled to a console that provides a heated or cooled heat transfer working fluid to exchange heat with the heat transfer element, thereby heating or cooling blood. The heated or cooled blood then heats or cools the patient's body or a selected portion thereof. In particular, methods and devices are provided for control and determination of the pressure within the heat transfer element.

The invention claimed is: 1. A catheter system to determine pressure in a catheter for use in the system to change the temperature of blood by heat transfer to or from a circulating working fluid, comprising: a supply lumen to introduce a circulating working fluid to a heat transfer element wherein
The invention claimed is: 1. A catheter system to determine pressure in a catheter for use in the system to change the temperature of blood by heat transfer to or from a circulating working fluid, comprising: a supply lumen to introduce a circulating working fluid to a heat transfer element wherein said supply lumen is substantially straight through the heat transfer element; a helical return lumen, helically encircling the substantially straight supply lumen, to extract a circulating working fluid from the heat transfer element, the return lumen having a cross-sectional area greater than the cross-sectional area of the supply lumen to enhance flexibility of the heat transfer element, wherein the helical return lumen encircles the supply lumen such that blood flows between the helical return lumen and the supply lumen, and wherein turbulence is induced in a substantial portion of a free stream of blood by contact with both the helical return lumen and the supply lumen, and a pump for circulating fluid through the supply lumen and helical return lumen to change the temperature of the heat transfer element to a temperature different from a patient temperature, to heat or cool the patient, wherein the pump speed and current drawn by the pump are used in a calculation of pressure. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the heat transfer element is made of a flexible conductive metal. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the heat transfer element is a balloon. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein three helical return lumens are provided. 5. The system of claim 3, wherein the supply lumen and the outlet lumen are made of a flexible material. 6. The system of claim 5, wherein the flexible material is rubber. 7. The system of claim 5, wherein the flexible material is a material capable of undergoing inflation. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein the working fluid is saline. 9. The system of claim 3, wherein a length of the supply lumen is between about 5 and 30 centimeters. 10. The system of claim 3, wherein a diameter of the helical shape of the return lumen is less than about 8 millimeters when inflated. 11. The system of claim 1, wherein the working fluid supply is configured to produce a pressurized working fluid at a temperature of between about-3째 C. and 36째 C. and at a pressure below about 5 atmospheres of pressure. 12. The system of claim 3, wherein the return lumen includes a surface coating or treatment to inhibit clot formation. 13. The system of claim 12, wherein the surface coating or treatment includes heparin. 14. A method of determining pressure in a catheter for use in a system to change the temperature of blood by heat transfer to or from a circulating working fluid, comprising: providing a catheter including: a supply lumen to introduce a circulating working fluid to a heat transfer element, wherein said supply lumen is substantially straight through the heat transfer element; and a helical return lumen, helically encircling the substantially straight supply lumen, to extract a circulating working fluid from the heat transfer element, the return lumen having a cross-sectional area greater than the cross-sectional area of the supply lumen to enhance flexibility of the heat transfer element; circulating fluid via a pump through the supply lumen and return lumen to change the temperature of the heat transfer element to a temperature different from a patient temperature, to heat or cool the patient, wherein the helical return lumen encircles the supply lumen such that blood flows between the helical return lumen and the supply lumen, and wherein turbulence is induced in a substantial portion of a free stream of blood by contact with both the helical return lumen and the supply lumen; and monitoring the pump speed and current drawn by the pump and using the same in a calculation of pressure. 15. The system of claim 14, wherein the heat transfer element is made of a flexible conductive metal. 16. The system of claim 14, wherein the heat transfer element is a balloon. 17. The system of claim 14, wherein three helical return lumens are provided. 18. The system of claim 16, wherein the supply lumen and the return lumen are made of a flexible material. 19. The system of claim 18, wherein the flexible material is rubber. 20. The system of claim 18, wherein the flexible material is a material capable of undergoing inflation. 21. The system of claim 14, wherein the working fluid is saline. 22. The system of claim 16, wherein a length of the supply lumen is between about 5 and 30 centimeters. 23. The system of claim 16, wherein a diameter of the helical shape of the return lumen is less than about 8 millimeters when inflated. 24. The system of claim 14, further comprising a working fluid supply including a pump, and wherein the pump circulates the working fluid. 25. The system of claim 24, wherein the working fluid supply is configured to produce a pressurized working fluid at a temperature of between about-3째 C. and 36째 C. and at a pressure below about 5 atmospheres of pressure. 26. The system of claim 16, wherein the return lumen includes a surface coating or treatment to inhibit clot formation. 27. The system of claim 26, wherein the surface coating or treatment includes heparin. 28. A method of determining pressure in a catheter for use in a system to change the temperature of blood by heat transfer to or from a circulating working fluid, comprising: providing a catheter including: a supply lumen to introduce a circulating working fluid to a heat transfer element; and a return lumen to extract a circulating working fluid from the heat transfer element; circulating fluid via a pump through the supply lumen and return lumen to change the temperature of the heat transfer element to a temperature different from a patient temperature, to heat or cool the patient; and monitoring the pump speed and current drawn by the pump and using the same in a calculation of pressure. 29. The method of claim 28, further comprising measuring the efficiency of the pump and using the same in a calculation of pressure.
